Chapter 269 The Intuition Touched Again

"Is this the passage that can go directly to hell?" Zheng Shu stood on the ground and looked at the passage in front of him.

The so-called passage to hell was much smaller than he had imagined. He originally thought that the deep crack that could reach hell would be at least as big as a canyon, but the passage in front of him was not so much a canyon as deep as a canyon. Pit or cave.

The diameter of the entire passage is even less than a hundred meters. If it weren't for the strong hell atmosphere coming from inside and the depth at which the echo could not be heard even if a stone was thrown, no one would have thought of this thing if it appeared in another place alone. Thing can go straight to hell.

If he encountered such a strangely shaped deep hole in another world, Zheng Shu might still praise the uncanny craftsmanship of nature, but in such a world with gods, Zheng Shu can only praise Hades for his uncanny craftsmanship.

"It is best to prepare all the protections that can be done to prevent being corroded by the breath of hell. Don't blame me for not reminding you, once you are completely corroded by the breath of hell, then you will change from living to dead forever, even if you are Immortality is useless." Hermes glanced at Zheng Shu when he said this, and it was obvious that this sentence was said to Zheng Shu.

As a god of the underworld lineage, he could clearly feel the powerful immortality contained in Zheng Shu's body the moment he saw Zheng Shu, and he didn't feel the same immortality as Hercules from Zheng Shu. The secret technique breath, so I couldn't help reminding him kindly because of the face that the other party had helped me before.

Zheng Shu also heard the subtext in Hermes' words. Although the defensive position formed by the constricting form of the God's Armor is enough for him to resist the erosion of hell, but since he has good intentions, Zheng Shu naturally also I don't mind giving this god a face.

Of course, it may also be due to the mentality of a certain angler who catches a big fish.

hum...

Accompanied by a slight buzzing sound, Zheng Shu's unusually bloated belt turned into fragments and spread towards his limbs. Pieces of fine metal particles quickly found their proper positions and combined with each other. In the blink of an eye, Zheng Shu A black battle armor was added to Shu's body.

wow...

Two black cloaks that looked a little irregular fluttered behind him. Zheng Shu pulled down his mask, looked at Hermes and nodded: "Thank you for reminding me, I'm ready now."

"The Armament of God..." Hermes was silent for a while, "It seems that my worries are unnecessary."

He could feel the powerful power contained in Zheng Shu's armor, even compared to Hades' helmet.

And judging by the high probability of this shape, it is still a type specially used for defense. Even if this level of God's Armament is in a closed state, the natural defense provided by it is enough to resist the erosion of the laws of hell and the breath of hell.

Hermes didn't say anything more, just nodded towards the two of them, and jumped down from the passage first.

Hercules and Zheng Shu didn't hesitate, and followed Hermes into the passage exuding a strong hell atmosphere.

hiss……

With the rapid descent of the crowd, the atmosphere of hell around became more and more intense, and in the end, these breaths even appeared like water mist.

The "heavy" airflow blows on the outer armor of Zheng Shu's battle armor and makes a "hissing" sound. Zheng Shu can also feel a tactile sensation from his body similar to being massaged by someone. This should be the breath of hell The erosion is transformed by the sheer impact of the Warframe.

And as they continued to descend, Zheng Shu could also feel the concentration of magic power around him rising rapidly, and the two black cloaks on the back of the armor had even begun to emit a faint light, which meant that the amount of magic power that could be absorbed every moment The magic power has reached a rather terrifying level.

"Get ready! We are going to start passing through the space barrier!" Hermes' reminder sounded from their ears.

Zheng Shu also felt that there seemed to be some wrinkles in the space around him, and the sand and soil around the passage seemed to be distorted.

At the same time, he also saw a faint radiance of divine power emanating from Hermes, which represented the power of the undead to guide the gods, and this power could guide the undead to where they wanted to go.

Although Zheng Shu and Hercules were not dead yet, the aura of hell on them was already strong enough, so Hermes could barely use his power to guide them to ensure that they landed very close to their destination. s position.

……

……

Hell, tens of kilometers away from King Hades' city.

The empty hell is shrouded in black mist like water mist all year round, and there are aimless wandering souls everywhere. They have been wiped out by the breath of hell for endless time, leaving only the most basic instincts.

After the last trace of instinct is completely wiped out, these souls will be turned into nutrients and deposited in the ground as the main material of hell, and hell will become more and more powerful because of this operating mechanism.

boom!boom!
Suddenly, there were two explosion-like shocks in the originally silent hell, and the resulting shock waves even smashed holes in the black mist.

Those were two indistinct black shadows that suddenly appeared in the midair of Hell, and hit the ground heavily.

After the dust dissipated, two radial shallow pits appeared on the ground, and two unusually tall people stood in the shallow pits.

"Is this hell? It feels like there's nothing special about it except it's a little darker." Zheng Shu opened the mask of his armor and looked around.

The environment in hell was much better than he had imagined. It could even be said that if it weren't for the surrounding black mist and ghosts wandering around, it would look no different from the normal world of the living.

Of course, through the feedback from the battle armor, Zheng Shu could feel that since he came to Hell, the tactile pressure he felt all over his body has increased a bit, probably from a gentle touch to a slightly stronger pressure.

But to be honest, this level of pressure is just a relatively powerful massage for ordinary people, let alone Zheng Shu.

Glancing at Hercules next to him, it was obvious that the secret technique on his body was also very stable, and the magic power transmitted in his body did not fluctuate at all.

It seems that under the protection of the secret technique, the erosion of hell did not make Hercules feel too much pressure.

"Hell is here. Welcome to the world of the dead." Hermes floated lightly from the sky and landed in front of the two of them.

After coming to hell, with the blessing of his home environment, the power of this underworld god has obviously improved to a higher level.

...Probably from the original one-punch knockdown to the point where it takes two punches to knock down, the improvement rate is quite high.

Zheng Shu quietly glanced at the god, and silently calculated in his heart.

If this is the case, the strength of Hades, the god of the underworld, in hell can even suppress the god king Zeus.

So here comes the problem. If Zheng Shu remembers correctly, in ancient Greek mythology, Heracross also met Hades during this trial and gave him an arrow.

But according to the current strength of Hercules, let alone Hades strengthened by hell, even in normal form, Hercules should not be able to defeat the king of the underworld who is the main god.

"That's the city of Hades. If you want to find the mouth of the River Styx where the three-headed dog is located, the only way to go is through that city," Hermes pointed. one direction.

Even with the occlusion of the black mist, with the eyesight of Hercules and Zheng Shu, they can still see a little trace of the city from a distance.

"Thank you for your help……"

"Roar!"

Before Hercules could finish his words of thanks, he was interrupted by a growl.

The place where the crowd descended was actually full of wandering souls, but because of Zheng Shu and Heracross' descending, they had been wiped out by the breath of hell and lost their sanity, and they were frightened by the flesh and blood creatures and fled in all directions.

After Zheng Shu saw this scene, they didn't bother these poor souls, they just stayed where they were and tried not to disturb the dead.

Originally, the two thought that the souls in hell were so afraid of strangers, but now it seems that this view may be a bit wrong.

In front of them, an unusually huge monster was floating above the ground. The appearance of this monster looked a bit "messy". Except that the lower body could clearly see the thick snake tail, the upper body looked as if it had been smothered. Randomly chopped and randomly spliced.

Looking at its translucent body, Zheng Shu and the Heracrossers knew that this monster itself was also a dead soul.

"I didn't expect such monsters to exist in hell, or do monsters also enter hell after death? Anyway, they look quite vicious." Hercules didn't show any fear, but moved excitedly With a slap on the arm, it seems that he wants to verify the strength of the monster in hell.

"It seems that not only this monster is not afraid of us, but some human souls are also not afraid." Zheng Shu turned his head and looked in another direction instead.

There, a soul that looks like a middle-aged man is carefully floating around. Unlike other dull-looking souls, the eyes of the other party still reveal the light of wisdom. It should be that he has just come to hell, so he still keeps own sanity.

"It looks like he needs some kind of help, um... I often help villagers, but this is the first time to help souls, you go and see him first, and go there after I get rid of the monster in front of me!" He Lacules looked at the soul of the monster that was approaching quickly, and without hesitation drew out his long sword and prepared to fight.

Zheng Shu nodded, turned around and walked towards the male soul.With the strength of Hercules, there is no monster in hell that can hurt him except Hades, so Zheng Shu is not worried about anything.

"Wait, wait! Don't attack them!" At this moment, Hermes suddenly appeared beside Heracros, and grabbed his arm hard.

Although he couldn't stop Hercules with his strength, for the sake of the god who helped him and others to the destination, Hercules stopped attacking.

"Roar!" The huge monster roared and rushed past Hercules, but it didn't cause him the slightest damage. It looked like a cloud of air passed through his body.

After passing through Hercules, the monster's soul suddenly turned around and rushed towards Zheng Shu in the distance, but Zheng Shu didn't show any resistance after seeing Hercules' handling method, just turned around and stood in front of him. The side of the male soul helped him to block the possible attack.

call……

The imaginary impact did not strike.

Zheng Shu felt very clearly that when the monster's soul passed through him, there was no substantial force collision at all, only the squeezing force of the body feedback given by the armor on his body increased a little.

But it didn't add much, probably at the level of a high concentration of hellish breath rushing over, which had no effect on him or Hercules.

"The soul of a dead person is the empty shadow of a living person. Not only can it not be harmed by ordinary creatures, but it cannot harm creatures itself." Hermes looked at the soul of the monster running away and explained to the two in a low voice, "And They will be very afraid of creatures with flesh and blood, because the soul will involuntarily recall the scene when it was dying after seeing the living flesh and blood, so it is just a little scared, and it doesn't really want to attack you."

"Well, I don't have any tendency to kill. As long as it doesn't mess with me, I won't bother with it." Hercules put away his sword indifferently, "But I didn't expect that in hell There is such a monster's soul, I thought only human beings have souls."

"That guy is an exception." Hermes breathed a sigh of relief, standing beside Hercules and watching the monster's soul rush towards Zheng Shu.

"Ordinary monsters do not have souls, but the guy just now was a Gorgon monster. In theory, he should be a god, but he died because he didn't have immortality. I don't know why, Lord Hades didn't kill her. Deal with it, that guy has been wandering through hell ever since."

"I see, it's eye-opening." Hercules nodded in amazement.

On the other hand, because Zheng Shu happened to be swept by the huge soul just now when they were talking, and was disturbed by the noise made by the soul, he didn't hear what Hermes said very clearly.

But Zheng Shu's heart twitched suddenly, making his expression serious: "Here it is again... What's going on here, what does my intuition want to tell me?"

"Excuse me... are you the living?" Just as Zheng Shu was thinking, a somewhat trembling voice came from the side, and he turned his head to look, it was the soul that was blocked by him just now.
